"Midnight Knocks" Creepypasta by RuckusQuantum

It was already midnight. The boy was sleeping, yet he was still half-conscious. His parents were not in their home, as they were away, lying cold under the ground. His parents reminisced about their memories before they left him forever alone.

"The final day will soon come. Your father's and my own property goes to you, including the house and the car. After my senses disappear, after my vision fades to void darkness, after I close my eyes shut, and after I am able to see the shining light, everything is all yours. Let's have a throwback. Remember the times I used to knock at your door at midnight to check if you were in your room? Sometimes, you went out through your room's window just to meet your friends for a party. I was mad because of that. I can't believe that you wanted to see your freak friends. Your dad almost tried to throw you out, but I stopped him. Your dad looks cruel, but I love him, and he loves you, but I don't understand why God took his life..."

The boy remembered the exact words his mother told him. He cried a single tear after remembering his mother's emotional speech of goodbye and painful death. He tried to ignore the pain inside him, but he was left weak and powerless. The sorrow and agony brimming inside him was uncontrollable, but he tried to forget the emotional thoughts.

The boy was already falling asleep after the sorrowful weeping, until he heard a sound. The sense of dread and paranoia flooded his mind, making him much more aware of the things around him. He stopped breathing for a moment, just to hear the very familiar sounds that reverberated at his ears clearly.

Someone was knocking at his room's door.
